A recent run in St. Paul has contributed to cancer research efforts. The Monarch 5K Run, held at Harriet Island, raised over $5,000 for a cancer research fund.

This fund is associated with Hamline University and supports student participation in research. The event honored a woman who fought pancreatic cancer. Her husband was involved in organizing the run.

More than 100 runners participated in the event. Further details about the run and the fund are available from the source.
